It’s all moving very quickly around Allan Saint-Maximin and his transfer to Newcastle United.

A target for Steve Bruce’s new side all summer, the French winger looks set to be the latest addition on Tyneside, with the player already photographed in the north of England ahead of his medical taking place.

With that supposedly underway, journalist Sacha Tavolieri, who was one of the first to report Newcastle’s final push to sign the player, claims the fitness tests are currently underway and the transfer is ‘planned to be made official’ later on Friday evening.

That means the possibility of a picture of Allan Saint-Maximin, most likely in a Gucci sweatband, holding up the club’s shirt with a big grin on his face in the next few hours.

Paying €18m + a few bonuses for the winger, the Premier League club appear to have secured a fun and exciting attacking threat to their squad, who could end up complementing record signing Joelinton perfectly.
